The Most Breathtaking Soccer Fans That May Have Also Graced The 2023 World Cup!
Brazil
Aside from living in the biggest nation in South America, which is why they have four distinct time zones, Brazilians are famous for being among the world’s best soccer enthusiasts. As per popular belief, about nine out of ten Brazilians have experienced playing soccer in their lives.
Brazil conquered the FIFA World Cup finals more than any other nation in history, with five wins. Having stunning and supportive fans rallying behind them must also help the team become even more motivated. But in 2022, the team got kicked out by Croatia following a 4-2 loss.
Slovakia
Slovakia is the best place for anybody who appreciates nature. Famous for its folk architecture, national parks, and hiking trails, the nation is home to numerous caves, some of which are sites protected by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
Nevertheless, Slovakians and people visiting it can also relish in other things, like rallying for its national team at the FIFA World Cup. This is something fresh for them, unlike other nations, since Slovakia is among the newest national soccer teams in the globe after splitting from the national team of Czechoslovakia. In 2022, they were part of Group H with Croatia, Cyprus, Malta, Russia, and Slovenia.
France
From Paris boulevards to the Musée du Louvre and the Eiffel Tower, it’s evident that France has a fascination with seizing the embodiment and beauty of things. Therefore, it’s not surprising that this supporter looked fabulous in her delicately adorned headpiece with a matching scarf. She made an exemplary color choice, complementing one of the tricolors in the country’s flag.
France is also the world’s most visited nation, mostly because of Paris’ international renown as the city of love. As wine connoisseurs, the French produced the priciest wine to date, a $558K bottle of 1945 Romanee-Conti sold to an Asian collector. In 2022, France failed to keep their defending title at the FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
Algeria
Algeria is renowned for multiple things aside from being Africa’s largest country. The nation is teeming with petroleum and natural gas, being a massive exporter of these by-products. Among other countries, Algeria’s national soccer team gives its locals the chance to cheer in the stands for their motherland.
Algeria made its way to FIFA in 1964, a little over two years after gaining independence. Its national team took home the title during the last FIFA Arab Cup and qualified for three more World Cups since its first 1982 qualification. Algeria wasn’t able to qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, though.
Egypt
Due to its early departure from the 2018 competition, Egyptian supporters did not have much time to demonstrate the passion that they’re noted for, which even got them banned from observing matches in stadiums all over Egypt. Fans from the country still got to cheer for the Pharaohs during their last game at the competition against Saudi Arabia, culminating in Egypt’s loss.
Not dissuaded, the fans cheered for its Egyptian players to a six-nil win against Niger in their next bout at the World Cup exit. As of October 2022, Egypt placed 39th in the FIFA rankings, although they were absent from the tournament after losing its spot to play in Qatar.
